Project description:Two types of RNA:DNA associations can lead to genome instability: the formation of R-loops during transcription and the incorporation of ribonucleotide monophosphates (rNMPs) into DNA during replication. Both ribonuclease (RNase) H1 and RNase H2 degrade the RNA component of R-loops, whereas only RNase H2 can remove one or a few rNMPs from DNA. We performed high-resolution mapping of mitotic recombination events throughout the yeast genome in diploid strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae lacking RNase H1 (rnh1Δ), RNase H2 (rnh201Δ), or both RNase H1 and RNase H2 (rnh1Δ rnh201Δ). We found little effect on recombination in the rnh1Δ strain, but elevated recombination in both the rnh201Δ and the double-mutant strains; levels of recombination in the double mutant were about 50% higher than in the rnh201 single-mutant strain. An rnh201Δ mutant that additionally contained a mutation that reduces rNMP incorporation by DNA polymerase ε (pol2-M644L) had a level of instability similar to that observed in the presence of wild-type Polε. This result suggests that the elevated recombination observed in the absence of only RNase H2 is primarily a consequence of R loops rather than misincorporated rNMPs.

Project description:Yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been widely used as a model system for studying genome instability. Here, heterozygous S. cerevisiae zygotes were generated to determine the genomic alterations induced by sudden introduction of active RNase H2. In combination of a custom SNP microarray, the patterns of chromosomal instability could be explored at a whole genome level. Ribonucleotides can be incorporated into DNA during replication by the replicative DNA polymerases. These aberrant DNA subunits are efficiently recognized and removed by Ribonucleotide Excision Repair, which is initiated by the heterotrimeric enzyme RNase H2. While RNase H2 is essential in higher eukaryotes, the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae can survive without RNase H2 enzyme, although the genome undergoes mutation, recombination and other genome instability events at an increased rate. Although RNase H2 can be considered as a protector of the genome from the deleterious events that can ensue from recognition and removal of embedded ribonucleotides, under conditions of high ribonucleotide incorporation and retention in the genome in a RNase H2-negative strain, sudden introduction of active RNase H2 causes massive DNA breaks and genome instability in a condition which we term “ribodysgenesis”. The DNA breaks and genome instability arise solely from RNase H2 cleavage directed to the ribonucleotide-containing genome. Survivors of ribodysgenesis have massive loss of heterozygosity events stemming from recombinogenic lesions on the ribonucleotide-containing DNA, with increases of over 1000X from wild-type. DNA breaks are produced over one to two divisions and subsequently cells adapt to RNase H2 and ribonucleotides in the genome and grow with normal levels of genome instability.

Project description:Transcripts up- or down-regulated comparing a strain where Rnase H is ectopically overexpressed versus wild type (empty vector); assessing the effect of DNA:RNA hybrid degradation on the transcriptome. Strains harboring the RNase H1 over-expression plasmid (p425-GPD-RNase H1) or control plasmid (p425-GPD) were grown in SC-Leucine at 30M-BM-0C. For both sets of microarray experiments, duplicate cultures were analyzed. Total RNA was isolated from 1 unit of A600 mid-log phase cells using a RiboPure Yeast kit (A&B Applied Biosystems), amplified, labeled and fragmented using a Message Apm III RNA Amplification Kit (A&B Applied Biosystems) and hybridized to a GeneChIP Yeast Genome 2.0 array using the GeneChip Hybridization, Wash, and Stain Kit (Affymetrix). Arrays were scanned by the Gene Chip Scanner 3000 7G and expression data was extracted using Expression ConsoleM-bM-^DM-" Software (Affymetrix) with the MAS5.0 statistical algorithm.

Project description:During transcription the nascent RNA can invade the DNA template, forming extended RNA-DNA duplexes (R-loops). Here we employ ChIP-seq in strains expressing or lacking RNase H to map targets of RNase H activity throughout budding yeast genome. In wild-type strains, R-loops were readily detected over the 35S rDNA region transcribed by Pol I and over the 5S rDNA transcribed by Pol III. In strains lacking RNase H activity, R-loops were elevated over other Pol III genes notably tRNAs, SCR1 and U6 snRNA, and were also associated with the cDNAs of endogenous TY1 retrotransposons, which showed increased rates of mobility to the 5?-flanking regions of tRNA genes. Unexpectedly, R-loops were also associated with mitochondrial genes in the absence of RNase H1, but not of RNase H2. Finally, R-loops were detected on highly expressed protein-coding genes in the wild-type, notably over the second exon of spliced ribosomal protein genes.

Both ribonuclease (RNase) H1 and RNase H2 degrade the RNA component of R-loops, whereas only RNase H2 can remove one or a few rNMPs from DNA. We performed high-resolution mapping of mitotic recombination events throughout the yeast genome in diploid strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae lacking RNase H1 (rnh1Δ), RNase H2 (rnh201Δ), or both RNase H1 and RNase H2 (rnh1Δ rnh201Δ). We found little effect on recombination in the rnh1Δ strain, but elevated recombination in both the rnh201Δ and the double-mutant strains; levels of recombination in the double mutant were about 50% higher than in the rnh201 single-mutant strain. An rnh201Δ mutant that additionally contained a mutation that reduces rNMP incorporation by DNA polymerase ε (pol2-M644L) had a level of instability similar to that observed in the presence of wild-type Polε. This result suggests that the elevated recombination observed in the absence of only RNase H2 is primarily a consequence of R loops rather than misincorporated rNMPs. The details of these experiments are in press in Genetics This diploid S.cerevisiae strain used here is a hybrid between W303-1A and YJM789. The backgrounds are diverged by about 50,000 polymorphisms that are surveyed by custom CGH microarrays containing SNP-specific probes (St. Charles et al., 2012; Genetics 190: 1267-1284; PMID 22267500). The whole genome array surveyed loss of heterozygosity (LOH) events throughout the genome of in wild type, pol2-M644L, rnh1Δ, rnh201Δ, rnh201Δ pol2-M644L, and rnh1Δ rnh201Δ mutant backgrounds in 10, 12, 10, 19, 17, and 22 samples, respectively. The names of these strains are KO_198,KO_234, KO_73, KO_75, KO_244, and KO_5, respectively. Another assay was performed mapping reciprocal crossover events on the right arm of chromosome IV in the rnh201Δ (strains KO_135 and KO188) and the rnh1Δrnh201Δ (strain KO_132) mutant backgrounds. A reporter system with a wild type ADE2 on the end of chromosome IV allowed us to detect crossovers by seeing a red-white sectored colony. Each reciprocal event was mapped by doing a microarray specific for the right arm of chromosome IV (St. Charles and Petes, 2013; PLoS Genet. 1267-1284 PMCID PMC3616911) on the red and white sides of sectors. 21 sectors were analyzed for the rnh201Δ mutant while 14 were analyzed for the rnh1Δ rnh201Δ mutant. We mapped crossovers on the right arm of chromosome IV in the rnh201Δ mutant in four different diploid isolates: KO135_5 (1R/1W, 2R/2W, 4R/4W, 5R/5W, 12R/12W, and 13R/13W), KO_135_6 (1R/1W, 4R/4W, 5R/5W, 7R/7W, 9R/9W, 11R/11W, 13R/13W, and 17R/17W), KO 188_1 (1R/1W, and 4R/4W), and KO188_2 (6R/6W, 7R/7W, 11R/11W, and 12R/12W). We mapped crossovers on the right arm of chromosome IV in the rnh1Δ rnh201Δ mutant in two different diploid isolates: KO_132_31 (2R/2W, 6R/6W, 8R/8W, 15R/15W, 17R/17W, 21R/21W, 22R/22W, and 24R/24W) and KO_132_29 (3R/3W, 7R/7W, 18R/18W, 24R/24W, and 34R/34W).

Project description:We report here the consequences of loss of Saccharomyces cerevisiae RNase H2 by comparing mRNA expression profiles in wild type yeast versus a strain lacking the RNH201 gene, encoding the catalytic subunit. Deleting RHN201 alters mRNA expression for hundreds of genes. Expression changes were based on seven biological replicates (3 from one batch and 4 from another batch) and are seen for many genes involved in stress responses and genome maintenance, consistent with a role of RNase H2 in removing ribonucleotides incorporated into DNA during replication. Differentially expressed genes include, those involved in ribosomal RNA processing and biogenesis and in tRNA modification, supports a role for RNase H2 in resolving R-loops formed during transcription of rRNA and tRNA. Other differentially expresses genes include putative or known helicases and nucleases maintenance of dsRNA viruses, which could be relevant to how mammalian RNase H2 dysfunction elicits an innate immune response leading to neurodegeneration. We examine the consequences of loss of Saccharomyces cerevisiae RNase H2 by comparing mRNA expression profiles in wild type yeast versus a strain lacking the RNH201 gene encoding the catalytic subunit. Expression changes were based on seven biological replicates (3 from one batch and 4 from another batch). For strain reference please see S.A.
